The study of collinear behavior for gauge theories in the spacelike region is of great phenomenological and theoretical importance. We analytically calculate the two-loop spacelike splitting amplitude for the full color N=4 Super-Yang-Mills theory. The result is derived by two complementary methods starting from the known amplitude: one is based on a discontinuity analysis, while the other one is based on analytic continuation. Our result explicitly shows terms that violate naive factorization. However we show that factorization is restored at the level of color-summed unpolarized squared amplitudes at next-to-next-to-next-to leading order. We conjecture that the two-loop tripole terms in the generalized splitting amplitudes in QCD are identical to what we obtain in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory.

  1. Spacelike-Collinear Scattering by the Method of Regions

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    The kinematic factorisation-violating part of the two-loop spacelike-collinear splitting amplitude comes entirely from a single hidden region with soft and Glauber loop momenta.

  2. Collinear Factorization Violation and Reggeization

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Collinear-factorization-violating contributions from a single Glauber gluon factor into collinear and soft subgraphs, and their leading rapidity logarithms exponentiate via the gluon Regge trajectory.

  3. Double spacelike collinear limits from multi-Regge kinematics

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The double spacelike collinear limit of planar N=4 SYM is governed by a generalized splitting amplitude that equals the six-point BDS-subtracted amplitude in multi-Regge kinematics.

  4. Low-energy theory of jet processes and PDF factorization

    hep-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A three-loop Glauber contribution to low-energy soft-collinear matrix elements exactly cancels the collinear factorization-violating terms, so DGLAP running and PDF factorization are consistent with super-leading logarithms.

  5. Infrared singularities and the collinear limits of multi-leg scattering amplitudes

    hep-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Using colour conservation and rescaling symmetry, the two-particle collinear constraints are shown to imply multi-particle collinear factorisation through four loops, and a new triple-collinear constraint is derived f...
